can you ever have enough robots [or bunnies]?
so... i can't believe this show is opening on friday. is that possible? if you are in the bay area and would like to come to the opening from 7-9pm, let me know - i have a few guest spots available on my list....
this is one of the many positions i've been in trying to get my site specific drawing done .... once again i'm struck by this whole process. still formulating, but here's a wee list
today i noticed/thought::
* my elbows hurt from propping myself up on them to paint
* it's easier for me to paint sideways right then sideways left
* when i show up on friday will the piece no longer seem mine?
* primary colors are good
* one, two, three, four, five, six
* pacman, space invaders, pixels
* repetition really is under-rated
* i really could spend 8 hours a day 5 days a week painting. it would be a privilege
* my wall drawing is across from a mother-f*^ck*n ed ruscha drawing !!! i never in my whole life would have thought that possible
* i really don't like being away from home for 14 hours
* i hate LED billboards
* who decided to call a dongle a dongle? [computer thing that hooks your laptop up to a projector]
and oh! if you weren't already bombarded with my spring newsletter... the san jose museum shot a little video of me.... i haven't really watched it because watching myself gives me the willies, but.... you can watch me seem uncomfortable in my studio.... they shot video of several people in the show - including one of my favorite artists [and former teacher] gail wight . her video is here
there's more info on the show and a link to podcasts of the videos on the san jose museum website
and... i wanted to share this little bunny i made for wendy's new baby.
i could also spend all day making little softies i think.....
happy hump day.

I loved what you said about repetition. I can really relate to that.
The bunny is adorable! :)
You really seem at ease. I think talking about something you love makes it easy to be comfortable.

Lisa-it is really you!
I'm sitting here, drinking a glass of wine, waiting for james to get off work so we can go out-and I'm like-hmm-I haven't checked your blog in a long time...okay.
Wow!
What a great video. You are so amazing...the whole robot as a self portrait-love it. Just everything is making sense-so good to actually see you.
and the robot quilt...just dying a lit bit from it...in the best of ways.
You are amazing and the fact that you are so kind and so sweet and just so damn busy-but you still share with us all the time.
Wow.
You are the bomb.
